Problems solved by technology

[0011] However, these silicas contain a relatively large amount of OH groups (silanol groups), which cannot be sufficiently reduced even by roasting.
When quartz glass obtained from silica containing such silanol groups is used as a raw material, for example, in the manufacture of crucibles for pulling semiconductor single crystals, etc., there are industrial and practical problems such as generation of bubbles during melting or lowering of viscosity.
[0012] Therefore, as a method for removing silanol groups from silica particles, JP-A No. 8-26741 discloses a diffusion technique using silanols in dehumidified air at 1220° C. for 50 hours. However, This method not only lacks industrial applicability in terms of cost due to long-time heat treatment, but also has problems such as devitrification (crystallization) of silica particles
[0013] In addition, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2-289416 discloses a method of temporarily holding at 600 to 1000° C. for a period of time for desiliconization, but in order to sufficiently reduce the content of silanol groups, long-term firing is required.

Embodiment 1

[0149] The aqueous silica gel (1) was frozen at -5°C for 10 hours. Thereafter thaw at room temperature. The water dissociated by thawing was removed by filtration to obtain silica particles.

[0150] This water removal can be performed with about 1 / 5 of the energy amount and about 1 / 2 of the energy-cost compared with heat drying. Furthermore, the polyvalent metal component contained in the silica particles after moisture separation was less than 1 / 10 of that in the heat-dried case.

[0151] Next, the obtained silica particles were pulverized with a quartz mortar and pestle, sieved with a polypropylene net of 50 to 200 meshes to obtain fine silica particles, put into a 3-liter quartz glass beaker, and 1 After boiling 1 liter of ultrapure water for 2 hours, the silica particles were separated by filtration through a filter made of polytetrafluoroethylene. This operation was repeated 5 times. Next, 10 wt% hydrochloric acid solution was added, boiled for 1 hour, filtered, and ...

Embodiment 2

[0153] The hydrous silica gel (2) was frozen at -10°C for 3 hours. Thereafter thaw at room temperature. Water dissociated due to thawing was removed by filtration to obtain silica particles.

[0154] Then, the same operation as in Example 1 was performed to obtain high-purity quartz glass powder. Quartz glass powders of extremely high purity can be obtained at low energy-cost conditions. Example 3

Embodiment 3

[0155] The aqueous silica gel (3) was frozen at -20°C for 1 hour. Thereafter thaw at room temperature. Water dissociated due to thawing was removed by filtration to obtain silica particles.

[0156] Then, a high-purity quartz glass powder was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1. Quartz glass powders of extremely high purity can be obtained at low energy-cost conditions. Example 4
